Nature-inspired pressure sensing technology aims to transform healthcare and surgical robots
Researchers from the National University of Singapore took a leaf out of nature’s book to develop ‘eAir’ — a novel pressure sensing technology that promises to transform minimally-invasive surgeries and implantable sensors. This novel invention mirrors the lotus leaf’s natural sensitivity to the extremely light touch of a water droplet, to achieve high accuracy and reliability in pressure detection.
